Good to see you back writing again, Ras. :) A pretty interesting review of a much awaited film, and since it is still not available in Pakistan, I thought you might have dwelled a little more on the plot.

and its too late...the Supreme Court has reached its` landmark verdict.


Are you daft? The SCOTUS said race based policies aren`t ok....so that works in her favor...``

HAHAHAHA...She misunderstood the verdict..this is upthere with Zeemax thinking Amaranth was an Indian fund called Amarnath...harharhar..

yes..schools will be segregated as they should be...they`ll be segregated on the basis of people who are worthy of getting in and those who are not...if american children want to compete with kids in india and china who put in a lot more effort, there`s no other way but meritocracy...

arjun, dont you think you`ve wasted enough of this board space with your specious bs? be gone!

ramblings about irrelevant topis doesn`t change the fact that you totally missed what the latest SCOTUS ruling meant for the plight of the Indian girl..your implication that the SCOTUS ruling hurt her case was so way off the mark it would be funny if you weren`t entrusted with imparting knowledge to the next generation of starbucks baristas...

Re: # 14

arjun baba.

you are absolutely correct. students of color should uniformly cheer that one ``Indian American`` daughter of a doctor can now attend a public school for gifted children. they should all cheer because the recent supreme court ruling has now found against policies meant at integrating school districts in the effort of providing the majority of ``American`` school children with a diverse peer body. they should cheer because working class white and of color ``American`` children will now be boundaried into their educational ghettos while affluent white and honorary white (south african apartheid term for Japanese visitors, agents in SA) Indian ``Americans`` will get to have ``their`` schools and ``their futures``, to hell with the country and its issues of of racism and classsism in the educational system.

Real visionary of you Arjun, the gordon gekko philosophy of ``i got mine, fuck you``.

I`ll lift my ignore shield temporarily, just long enough to remind you that as usual you have missed the bigger picture. as for my students, they have intimate knowledge of a system demarcated with so many tiers it rivals Dante`s circle of hell.

clearly a person who can`t understand an article she posted or understand the simple meaning of a sCOTUS ruling shouldn`t be in a position where she teaches other people...

which college would want spreading ignorance one student at a time to be their motto?

that would be a retort if posting comments was the job I was paid to do...now you just look retarded...like your post about the SCOTUS ruling on race based admissions and the IA girl....

Re: # 10

Clearly you are not being paid to post your anti Pakistan diatribes, hence my concern about your ongoing unemployment....

When the ``beliefs`` themselves are the source of the problem, highlighting the ``commonality`` ain`t going to work...
